Around from the start
The Telecaster is an evolution of the very first Fender design, the 1949 Esquire, and has become one of the most widely used designs in music from country to metal. With its flat top, single-cut design, and ability to obtain criminally low-string action, the Telecaster is a versatile guitar suitable for any player. This Standard Telecaster is a no-frills representation of the long-running instrument, capturing the beloved style and sound in one approachable guitar.
A range of tones
With two ceramic single-coil pickups, the Standard Tele offers a spectrum of tonal variety. The Standard Ceramic Single-coil Tele pickups supply bright, snappy, clean tones at home in any genre but are beloved by country artists. The higher-output ceramic magnets can push your amp into crunchier tones that are perfect for more aggressive genres. This versatile instrument makes the perfect platform for experimenting with your sound and dialing in your setup. Use it to practice or perform across various styles with multiple techniques.
C-shaped perfection
The Standard Telecaster's neck sports Fender's much-loved modern C shape. Combined with the 9.5-inch radius of the fretboard, this neck is excellent at reducing tension in your hand. Easy to play, the maple neck fits comfortably in the hand, allowing plenty of room to fret complex chords, pick out simple melodies, or shred through scales. The satin finish is smooth without being tacky, keeping your movements fluid, while the Indian laurel fretboard adds a splash of darkness to the guitar’s aesthetic.
